Those Golden Minutes Before You Are Completely Awake, When Your Mind Is Just Drifting, You Have No Censorship; You Are Ready To Develop Any Kind Of Idea. That's When I Come Up With The Best And Worst Ideas. That Is The Privilege Of Being A Writer - That You Can Stay In Bed For An Hour In The Morning And It's Work Time.
